Start, Own & Grow Your Business Abroad

Expanding your business internationally or establishing a new company overseas can open the door to new markets, international clients, investment opportunities and greater business flexibility.

However, establishing a company in another country involves more than simply registering a business. Entrepreneurs need to understand the local legal framework, ownership structure, registration procedures, taxation, banking, residence options and ongoing compliance requirements.

At Melissa International, we help entrepreneurs, investors and business owners explore and establish companies overseas with professional guidance and local legal support through our trusted partners in the destination countries.

Our Company Formation Overseas

Our current company formation destinations are:

Lithuania

Lithuania

serbia

Serbia

Why Form a Company Overseas?

International company formation can provide entrepreneurs with opportunities to:

  • Establish a presence in a new market
  • Access international customers and partners
  • Operate a business from another country
  • Expand an existing business internationally
  • Build an international business structure
  • Explore residence opportunities connected with business activity
  • Diversify business operations
  • Develop a long-term international business strategy

The benefits and legal requirements vary from country to country and depend on the nature and structure of the business.

100% Foreign Ownership

One of the important advantages available in our selected company-formation destinations is the possibility of 100% foreign ownership, subject to the applicable local laws, business activity and regulatory requirements.

This can allow eligible foreign entrepreneurs to establish and own their business without necessarily having a local equity partner.

What does 100% ownership mean?

Where permitted by local law, the foreign investor may be able to:

  • Own 100% of the company
  • Control the company’s management
  • Hold the company’s shares
  • Receive eligible business profits
  • Make business decisions independently
  • Develop the company according to their business strategy

The exact ownership structure depends on the country, business activity and applicable regulations.
